The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Basildon local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The five 49 WHITESMITH DRIVE sales between October 1996 and October 2020 have been plotted on the graph.

For example, the April 2018 sale was for 22% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 22% below the HPI over time, until the October 2020 sale, where it falls to 23% below the HPI.
